I had to have my parathyroid removed. Dr. Pendarvis did the procedure in about an hour. The surgery went very smoothly and I had no pain afterwards. Dr. Pendarvis has an excellent bedside manner. He is very attentive to what is going on with you and does a personal followup a week after surgery. I had no bad after effects after surgery and recovery was very quick. I would definitely recommend Dr. Pendarvis for doing your surgery.

I am two weeks post-thyroidectomy performed by Dr. Pendarvis. He has done excellent work…near perfection! My scar is hardly noticeable. His bedside manner is beyond immeasurable. I have been pleased with my overall experience with Dr. Pendarvis as well as the staff at Northeast Georgia Health Systems.

I feel so lucky to have found Dr. Pendarvis. He performed a right lobe thyroidectomy on me 3 weeks ago. I knew I had chosen the right doctor from my first appointment with him. He is easy to talk to and informative. He took the time to answer all of my questions. He was genuinely concerned about making things as easy as possible for me when arranging pre-op appointments and surgery given that I live an hour and a half away from his office and the hospital. He has been quick to respond to any messages I have sent to him. Folk... read more

Dr. Pendarvis, along with his staff were all very friendly. Dr P was extremely knowledgeable & a great listener. I never felt rushed & absolutely felt seen. He answered each of my concerns about my procedure and post op questions. I especially loved how thorough Dr. P was & He really took his time to explain the Laparoscopic procedure with me as well as to why He may need to do an open surgery depending on my personal diagnosis. I had a great visit both pre and post op and the doctor's demeanor really put me at ease before, ... read more
